My painting
process is intuitive and from the heart,
as I have had no formal training per se.
However, my parents, having been both respected
artists in their own right fueled my passion
for art.
I am very connected with
nature, intrigued and very aware of my environment,
which is my main source of inspiration.
Whether in my garden, during my global travels,
or the south shore coastal area where I live,
I am continually inspired to paint by the
wonder of the world around me.
I paint what I see and am
fascinated with color, form, texture -
the play of light and shadow on almost
anything
- the randomness nature possesses.
Capturing the essence of
my subject is my goal, achieving this feeds
my soul and stimulates all of my senses.
Stirring another's spirit is the ultimate
of satisfaction, with each painting having
it's own message, speaking to the viewer
who is impassioned by their own personal
interpretation of my work.
Once we are no longer on
this earth, we leave in our wake a trail.
With my art, I hope to leave such a trail
- having created a continual source of
pleasure, a sense of calm, the endless
power to evoke feelings with the passage
of time.
